PASTOR'S  GREETING 

To  the  Members  of  the  Congregation : — 

It  is  with  a  deep  sense  of  gratitude  to  God  that  we  pre- 
sent to  you  this  Fiftieth  Anniversary  Year  Book.  We  are 
grateful  for  the  fifty  years  of  growing  life,  which  He  has 
given  to  our  Church,  grateful  for  the  abundant  fruitage  of 
these  years,  grateful  that  the  fiftieth  year  is  the  best  of  all, 
especially  in  the  manifestation  of  Christian  benevolence. 

As  the  Church  passes  into  the  new  half-century  of  her 
life,  we  feel  that  she  has  clearer  vision  of  her  mission,  and 
a  better  command  of  her  vital  force  than  ever  in  her  history. 
She  is  truly  pressing  on.  In  the  exhibition  of  her  growing 
desire  to  serve,  she  is  giving  expression  to  the  best  spirit  of 
the  age,  and  we  prophesy  for  her  an  ever-enlarging  sphere 
of  activity. 

In  recognition  of  the  Fiftieth  Anniversary,  the  Pastor's 
Historical  Sermon,  preached  on  December  29th,  is  herein- 
after given  in  full,  besides  a  brief  historical  sketch,  the 
rolls  of  Pastors,  Ruling  Elders,  Deacons  and  Trustees,  a 
Summary  of  the  Church  Reports  for  fifty  years,  and  a  hst  of 
the  Church  Memorials,  all  of  which  are  commended  to 
your  careful  study. 

The  yearly  reports  show  a  very  healthy  state  of  the 
Church  life.  While  there  is  abundant  room  for  improve- 
ment and  development,  we  rejoice  that  through  the  conse- 
crated efforts  of  our  members  so   much   is  being  accom- 


THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

plished  for  our  Lord  and  Master.  The  large  excess  of  our 
contributions  for  Missionary  and  benevolent  purposes  over 
those  for  congregational  expenses  is  v^rorthy  of  special  note. 

Eastminster  Chapel  has  shov^^n  a  very  decided  increase  in 
numbers  and  vital  strength  during  the  tv^^elvemonth. 
The  present  building,  occupied  only  a  year  ago,  is  taxed  to 
its  full  capacity  by  the  eager  members  and  adherents  of  the 
Chapel,  and  a  larger  equipment  is  becoming  an  imperative 
necessity.  It  is  a  source  of  much  gratification  that  this 
work  has  from  the  beginning  been  deemed  vs^orthy  of  such 
generous  and  hearty  support  on  your  part. 

Rejoicing  over  what  God  has  wrought  through  us  as  a 
people,  let  us  go  forth  to  still  more  bountiful  sowing  in 
preparation  for  more  bountiful  reaping,  being  assured  that 
"He  that  supplieth  seed  to  the  sower  and  bread  for  food, 
shall  supply  and  multiply  your  seed  for  sowing,  and  increase 
the  fruits  of  your  righteousness:  ye  being  enriched  in  every 
thing  unto  all  liberality,  which  worketh  through  us  thanks- 
giving to  God." 

Faithfully,  your  Pastor, 

JOHN  HARVEY  LEE.

THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

Administration  of  the  Sacraments 

The  Sacrament  of  the  Lord's  Supper  is  administered  on 
the  morning  of  the  third  Sabbath  of  March,  June,  Sep- 
tember, and  December.  A  Preparatory  Service  is  held  on 
the  Wednesday  evening  immediately  preceding  each  Com- 
munion Sabbath. 

The  Sacrament  of  Baptism  is  administered  to  adults 
immediately  before  the  Communion  Service. 

The  Sacrament  of  Baptism  is  administered  to  infants 
when  either  parent  is  a  church  member,  on  the  Sab- 
bath next  following  the  Communion,  in  connection 
with  the  Morning  Worship,  and  also  on  * 'Children's  Day" 
(second  Sabbath  in  June).  The  attention  of  parents  is 
directed  to  the  rule  of  the  "Directory  for  Worship,"  that 
baptism  is  "usually  to  be  administered  in  the  church,  in  the 
presence  of  the  congregation." 

It  is  the  custom  of  this  church  to  present  a  Bible  to  each 
baptized  child  of  the  church  on  reaching  the  age  of  seven 
years.  The  presentation  takes  place  on  "Children's  Day." 
Admission  to  Membership 

Persons  presenting  certificates  of  membership  or  letters 
of  commendation  from  other  Evangelical  Churches  are 
admitted  to  full  membership  by  the  Session  without  exami- 
nation. 

Persons  desiring  to  unite  with  the  church  upon  confes- 
sion of  their  faith  in  Christ,  may  present  themselves  for 
examination  at  any  regular  meeting  of  the  Session,  particu- 
larly the  meetings  on  the  Wednesday  and  Friday  evenings 
before  the  Communion. 

"In  the  Presbyterian  Church  no  acceptance  of  the 
doctrines  of  the  Church  is  required  of  any  communicant, 


IN  GERMANTOWN 


beyond  a  personal  faith  in  Jesus  Christ  as  Son  of  God 
and  Saviour  of  the  World,  and  a  sincere  acceptance  of  Him 
as  Lord  and  Master."  (Declaration  of  General  Assembly, 
1906.) 

New  members,  previously  received  by  the  session,  are 
publicly  welcomed  by  the  church  in  connection  with  the 
Communion  Service.

THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 
Church  Support  and  Benevolences 

This  church  is  supported  by  a  system  of  pew  rentals, 
supplemented  by  church  collections  made  at  the  Sabbath 
services  not  specially  set  apart  for  benevolent  offerings.  Half 
pews  and  single  sittings  are  rented  to  those  who  do  not 
wish  an  entire  pew.  Rentals  are  made  for  the  entire  year, 
and  are  payable  quarterly  in  advance.  The  Pew  Commit- 
tee is  ready  to  assign  pews  and  sittings  at  any  time  to  those 
who  desire  regular  places  in  the  church. 

Members  are  earnestly  urged  to  do  their  utmost  for  the 
maintenance  of  the  local  church  work,  both  by  taking 
sittings  and  by  contributing  regularly  through  the  Sabbath 
collections. 

Annual  offerings  are  made  for  the  missionary  and  benevo- 
lent work  of  the  church  on  the  first  Sabbath  of  each 
month,  as  follows: — 

January. — Presbyterian  Orphanage. 

February. — Board  of  Publication  and  Sabbath-school 
Work. 

March. — Home  Missions  in  Pennsylvania. 

April. — The  College  Board. 

May. — Board  of  Foreign  Missions. 

June. — Board  of  Education. 

July. — Pennsylvania  Bible  Society. 

August. — American  Sunday  School  Union  and  Amer- 
ican Tract  Society. 

September. — Board  of  Church  Erection. 

October.— Board  of  Ministerial  Rehef. 

November. — Board  of  Home  Missions. 

December. — Board  of  Missions  for  Freedmen. 
For  these  offerings  sets  of  envelopes,  sufficient  for  a  year, 


IN  GERMANTOWN 


are  furnished  the  members  of  the  congregation.  The 
Session  desires  that  at  least  one  set  of  envelopes  be  found  in 
each  home,  and  urges  their  regular  use  upon  all  contribu- 
tors. It  would  encourage  the  use  of  envelopes  by  individuals 
in  a  family,  and  to  that  end  will  gladly  furnish  additional  sets 
to  any  applicants. 

The  numbers  on  the  envelopes  are  registered  with  the 
Clerk  of  Session,  who  checks  them  up  after  the  contri- 
butions have  been  collected  by  the  Treasurer,  so  that  the 
amount  one  may  give  for  any  cause  need  not  be  known  to 
any  but  himself.  The  Session  is  anxious  only  to  know  the 
fact  that  the  members  are  regular  contributors. 

The  envelopes  will  enable  one  to  make  his  contributions 
for  the  various  objects  at  any  time.  It  is  unjust  to  make 
the  sharing  in  the  benevolent  work  of  the  church  contin- 
gent on  attendance  at  the  particular  service  when  the 
offering  is  made.  Offerings  should  be  planned  beforehand, 
and  if  providentially  hindered  from  bringing  them  in  person, 
members  should  make  sure  that  the  different  causes  do  not 
suffer  by  their  absence. 

At  the  quarterly  Communion  services  offerings  are  made 
for  the  Deacons'  Fund,  for  the  care  of  the  poor  of  the 
congregation. 

The  offering  on  Thanksgiving  Day  is  for  the  German- 
town  Hospital. 

Special  offerings  are  appointed  by  the  Session  from  time 
to  time  for  such  other  objects  as  are  deemed  worthy  of  the 
support  of  the  church. 

In  1905,  in  response  to  an  appeal  from  the  Session,  there 
was  created  by  voluntary  contributions  a  "Session's  Benev- 
olent Fund,"  which  is  still  maintained.     This   is   designed 


THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

to  provide  a  fund,  out  of  which  the  Session  can  make 
appropriations  in  response  to  the  special  calls  that  come  to  it 
every  year  from  those  engaged  in  various  forms  of  benevo- 
lent or  Christian  service. 

Members  are  requested  to  make  the  church  the  medium 
of  their  contributions  to  benevolent  and  missionary  work. 
Certain  institutions  have  their  authorized  representatives  in 
our  congregation,  and  members  may  make  their  contribu- 
tions through  these  representatives,  as  follows: — 

McAll  Mission  in  France. — Mrs.  Abraham  R.  Perkins. 
Presbyterian  Orphanage. — Mrs.  John  McArthur  Harris, 

and  Miss  Elva  Porter. 
Presbyterian  Home  for  tVidows  and  Single  Women,  JVest 

Philadelphia.— Miss  M.  Ella  Kimball. 
Presbyterian    Home  for  Aged  Couples  and  Aged  Men, 

Bala. — Miss    Margaret    Boyle,    and    Mrs.    Howard 

Ketcham. 
IValdensian  Church  in  Italy. — Mrs.  M.  Isadore  Dutton. 
Presbyterian  Hospital. — Mrs.  William  E.  Chapman. 
Wimen's     Christian     Association,     Germantown. — Miss 

Henrietta  G.  Elliot. 
Young  Women's  Christian  Association,   Philadelphia. — 

Mrs.  G.  Ralston  Ayres,  Mrs.  D.  Linn  Coyle,  and 

Miss  Emma  W.  Siner. 

Contributions  to  other  institutions  may  be  made  through 
the  Treasurer  of  Session. 

Our  Missionary  Activities 

The  main  foreign  missionary  work  of  our  church  is  done 
through  our  Missionaries,  the  Rev.  and  Mrs.  George  W. 


IN  GERMANTOWN 


Marshall,  of  Yeung  Kong,  South  China,  whose  support  we 
have  been  providing  since  1903.  The  Yeung  Kong 
station  ranks  among  the  most  successful  in  the  whole  Pres- 
byterian Mission  field. 

Through  the  Woman's  and  Tulpohocken  Societies,  half 
of  the  salary  of  Miss  Bessie  T.  Milliken,  a  teacher  in  the 
Joshi  Gakuin  or  Girls'  School,  of  Tokyo,  Japan,  is  provided. 
The  McAll  Mission  in  France  and  the  Waldensian  work 
in  Italy  are  also  generously  supported. 

Our  Home  Missionary  Activities  are  more  diverse.  Since 
1903  our  church  has  been  supporting  the  Rev.  and  Mrs. 
Claude  R.  Brodhead,  until  December,  1906,  laboring  among 
the  Navajo  Indians  at  Jewett,  N.  M.,  but  now  stationed  at 
Laguna,  N.  M.,  among  the  Pueblos.  We  have  a  special 
interest  in  Mrs.  Brodhead  on  account  of  her  being  a  child 
of  the  Second  Church. 

Our  nearest  Home  Mission  work  is  Eastminster  Chapel, 
on  the  east  side  of  Germantown,  whose  support  is  guaran- 
teed by  our  church.  (A  summary  of  the  Eastminster  work 
is  given  elsewhere.) 

The  Italian  work  in  Germantown  is  well  supported 
through  the  Woman's,  Tulpohocken  and  King's  Daugh- 
ters Societies,  as  are  also  various  other  Schools  under  the 
Woman's  Home  Board. 

By  combining  the  church  and  Sabbath-school  offerings 
for  the  Board  of  Publication  and  Sabbath-school  work,  we 
provide  for  half  the  support  of  a  Sabbath-school  Missionary. 

Home  Missions  in  Pennsylvania  are  also  liberally  remem- 
bered, as  are  the  other  Church  Boards,  in  goodly  sums 
through  annual  offerings.

THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

Report  of  the  Board  of  Deacons 

The  business  depression,  through  which  we  are  passing, 
has  added  to  the  number  of  calls  upon  our  funds,  although 
the  amount  of  money  used  during  the  year  is  somewhat  less 
than  in  the  year  previous.  Assistance  was  rendered  to  six- 
teen persons  on  thirty-five  different  occasions. 

Much  of  the  assistance  given  was  for  the  reHef  of  tempo- 
rary distress,  and  in  every  case  we  believe  it  was  received 
with  heartfelt  gratitude  to  the  church  that  did  not  Hmit  its 
ministrations  to  spiritual  things. 

Sometimes  the  help  needed  has  required  no  money  at  all. 
Advice  given  and  the  quiet  assurance  of  our  sympathy  has 
straightened  out  difficulties,  restored  courage,  and  made 
possible  what  seemed  hopeless  before. 

In  all  our  giving  we  have  tried  to  make  our  less  fortunate 

brothers  feel  that  we  are  only  sharing  with  them  what  the 

Lord  had  more  bountifully  bestowed  upon  us,  as  a  church.

The  expenses  of  the  school  are  paid  out  of  the  church 
treasury;  thus  the  school  is  enabled  to  use  all  its  contribu- 
tions for  missionary  and  other  benevolent  purposes.  Reg- 
ular offerings  are  made  each  Sabbath  for  general  missionary 
work.  Special  offerings  are  made  at  Christmas  for  the 
Germantown  Hospital  (Children's  Ward),  at  Easter  for  the 
Presbyterian  Orphanage,  and  on  Children's  Day  for  the 
Children's  Country  Week  Association,  the  Sanitarium  at

In  these  latter  days  when  we  hear  so  much  about  the 
"forward  movement"  in  missions  and  in  evangelistic  work 
at  home,  it  is  a  pleasure  to  report  that  the  movement  of 
our  society  has  been  in  consonance  with  the  work  at  large. 
At  our  meetings,  which  have  numbered  sixteen,  seven  with 
home  missionary  subjects,  eight  with  foreign,  and  one 
general,  at  the  beginning  of  the  work  in  the  Fall,  and  in 
which  thirty-four  women  have  taken  active  part,  some  of 
them  several  times,  at  these  meetings,  the  increased  attend- 
ance has  been  noteworthy.  Our  average  record  is  thirty- 
two,  with  a  minimum  of  twenty-two  and  a  maximum  of 
forty-two,  as  against  an  average  of  twenty-three  for  last 
year.  Of  those  outside  our  own  church  who  have  spoken 
at  the  meetings  are  Mrs.  Howell,  Corresponding  Secretary 
for  Japan  of  the  Women's  Foreign  Board,  Mrs.  Newkirk, 
Corresponding  Secretary  for  China,  and  Miss  Miller,  of  the 
Italian  Mission  School  in  Germantown. 


IN  GERMANTOWN 


In  our  money  giving  there  has  been  a  large  increase. 
We  have  maintained  our  subscriptions  of  former  years  to  the 
work  at  home  and  abroad  (to  the  salary  of  Miss  Milliken, 
in  Tokyo,  to  the  Indian  School  at  Tucson,  to  the  Ashville 
School,  to  the  Laura  Sunderland  School,  to  the  Barber 
Memorial)  and  to  these  v^^e  have  added  a  contribution  of 
$475  toward  the  building  fund  of  the  ItaHan  Mission  in 
Germantown. 

Our  usual  box  was  sent  to  Mr.  Robinson,  in  Oregon,  and 
while  it  was  a  difficult  one  it  was  generously  filled  with  all 
the  needed  articles  through  the  tireless  efforts  of  the  box 
committee.  Sewing  meetings  were  held  during  the  Fall  to 
prepare  for  the  box,  but  in  November  these  were  discon- 
tinued for  the  Winter. 

Two  receptions  have  been  given  during  the  year,  one  last 
June  to  Mr.  Dunlap,  on  his  departure  to  the  PhiHppines,  and 
one  in  November  to  our  Pastor  and  wife  on  the  Fifth  Anni- 
versary of  Mr.  Lee's  installation. 

Tea  has  been  served  monthly  after  the  missionary  meet- 
ings, that  the  women  might  enjoy  a  social  hour  together. 
Early  in  February  the  Women's  Societies  combined  to  give 
a  musical  tea  at  the  Manse  to  increase  the  interest  of  the 
women  in  the  work  of  the  church.  Mrs.  Thorpe  and 
Mrs.  Turner,  together  with  beautiful  music,  gave  us  an 
interesting  and  dehghtful  afternoon.  Later  in  the  month 
the  Sunday-school,  with  our  assistance,  gave  a  Bazaar  of 
Nations  to  raise  the  money  for  the  Italian  work.  The 
supper  was  managed  by  a  committee  of  *the  society  and  was 
entirely  successful. 

Our  topic  cards  are  a  speaking  report  of  the  Missionary 
Committee's  faithful  services.

THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

This  year  there  has  been  but  one  break  in  our  numbers. 
New  workers  have  been  added  unto  us,  bringing  fresh 
enthusiasm  with  them.  Wider  knowledge  has  broadened 
our  faith,  deeper  spirituality  has  brought  with  it  a  finer 
insight  and  a  higher  hope  that  we,  the  children  and  heirs  of 
God  are  at  last  entering  into  our  inheritance,  the  winning 
of  the  world  to  our  Master.  ''Nevertheless  we,  according 
to  His  promise,  look  for  a  new  heaven  and  a  new  earth 
wherein  dwelleth  righteousness."

TWENTY-FOURTH    ANNUAL    REPORT 

Our  Missionary  Meetings  have  been  held  jointly  with  the 
Woman's  Society  on  the  last  Tuesday  of  each  month,  and 
have  proven  most  interesting  and  helpful.  The  sewing 
meetings  have  been  held  the  first  and  third  Mondays  of 
each  month.  The  time  was  devoted  to  sewing  for  the 
missionary  boxes  and  to  making  sixty-four  articles  for  the 
Presbyterian  Hospital.  We  have  had  an  average  attend- 
ance of  fourteen  at  these  meetings.  Five  new  members 
have  been  welcomed,  making  our  present   membership  31. 

By  means  of  the  ''sacrifice  offering,"  amounting  this 
year  to  $132.50,  and  the  annual  dues,  much  has  been 
accomplished.  A  large  box  of  clothing,  valued  at  $200, 
was  sent  in  November  to  a  missionary  and  his  family  in 
Minnesota.  Two  barrels  went  to  the  Girls'  Industrial 
School,  at  Aiken,  S.  C,  and  a  generous  contribution  was 
made  to  the  Italian  Mission  in  Germantown. 

At  one  of  the  January  meetings  the  President  asked  us 
to  raise  a  special  fund  for  Foreign  Missions  to  mark  the 
Fiftieth  Anniversary  of  the  Church.  The  members  entered 
into  this  with  a  will,  and  a  total  of  %2^0  was  contributed, 
this  being  five  times  the  usual  offering  of  the  society.  It 
was  joyously  appropriated  to   the   Girls'    School  at   Sidon,

IN  GERMANTOWN 


Syria;  the  Famine  Sufferers  of  India;  Miss  Milliken's  salary 
in  Japan;  and  the  General  Fund  of  the  Foreign  Board. 
Next  year  the  society  will  be  twenty-five  years  old.  We 
hope  that  the  members  may  be  inspired  to  still  greater 
efforts  under  the  blessing  of  God,  so  as  to  make  our  silver 
anniversary  a  most  worthy  one.

The  King's  Daughters  Missionary  Society  has  had  both 
a  pleasant  and  a  profitable  year,  and  the  meetings  have 
been  enjoyed  by  all. 

Until  Christmas  we  met  at  the  homes  of  the  various 
members  to  sev*^  for  the  Christmas  box,  which  was  sent  to 
one  of  the  schools  at  Clear  Creek,  W.  Va.  The  box  was 
most  satisfactory  in  every  way — containing  dolls,  clothing, 
toys,  games,  etc.,  etc.  We  also  sent  Bibles  to  the  "Girls' 
Home  School,"  at  Lawson,  W.  Va. 

After  completing  this  work  we  disbanded,  and,  with 
other  young  women,  formed  a  "Study  Class,"  which 
has  been  meeting  every  Monday  afternoon  with  Mrs.  John 
McArthur  Harris,  to  study  Dr.  Arthur  H.  Smith's  book, 
"The  Uplift  of  China."  These  hours  of  study  have  been 
most  helpful  and  inspiring. 

The  treasurer's  report  shows  $31.21  collected  from  our 
entertainment,  which,  with  the  dues  ($6),  was  all  expended 
on  the  Christmas  box.

The  year  has  been  a  most  successful  one  for  the  Brother- 
hood. The  membership  has  been  increased  to  eighty-three 
and  along  with  this  increase  there  has  been  a  manifest 
growth  in  the  interest  of  the  men  of  the  church  in  the  work 
of  the  organization. 

Under  the  auspices  of  the  Brotherhood  a  Men's  Bible 
Class  has  met  regularly  Sunday  mornings  since  the  early  Fall, 
under  the  leadership  of  the  Rev.  Dr.  William  J.  Erdman. 
The  attendance  and  interest  has  been  most  encouraging. 
Mr.  H.  K.  Caskey  has  been  the  chairman  of  the  Bible  Class 
Committee. 

The  Ushering  Committee,  of  which  Mr.  John  W. 
Doriss  is  the  chairman,  has  thoroughly  systematized  the 
ushering  at  the  church  services  and  insured  the  efficient  and 
faithful  performance  of  this  very  important  branch  of  the 
work. 

Good  work  has  also  been  done  at  Eastminster  Chapel  by 
the  Committee  for  Work  Among  Boys,  Mr.  Brison  Howie, 
chairman.  A  Boys'  Club  has  been  organized,  which  meets 
weekly  under  the  personal  supervision  of  the  members  of 
the  committee.  The  call  for  funds  for  this  work  has  met 
with  a  gratifying  response.  Members  of  the  Brotherhood 
have  done  efficient  service  on  behalf  of  the  Local  Option 
Movement  and  are  still  zealous  for  this  good  cause.

On  account  of  the  great  difficulty  in  securing  attendance 
at  the  weekly  meetings  of  the  League,  little  has  been  done

The  work  at  Eastminster  Chapel  continues  to  enjoy 
prosperity.  In  July,  1907,  the  Rev.  Harle  W.  Hathaway 
was  appointed  Minister-in-Charge,  and  under  his  wise  and 
efficient  leadership,  substantial  progress  has  been  made.  A 
young  people's  organization,  known  as  **The  Samaritans," 
has  been  formed,  besides  a  Boys'  Club  under  the  care  of  the 
Church  Brotherhood.  The  Woman's  Society,  in  addition 
to  holding  the  regular  missionary  and  sewing  meetings,  gave 
a  number  of  socials,  and  raised  and  contributed  $160.47,  of 
which  $11.50  was  given  to  Home  Missions,  $11.50  to  For- 
eign Missions  and  about  $125  added  to  the  "Building 
Fund."  The  Sabbath-school  has  grown  steadily  and  the 
attendance  at  the  weekly  meetings  has  been  good.  The 
Chapel  contributed  for  its  own  support  $335,  an  increase  of 
$50  over  the  previous  year. 

During  the  Summer  of  I907>  Sabbath  Evening  Union 
Services  of  Eastminster  and  Somerville  Chapels  were  held, 
under  the  direction  of  a  joint  Committee  of  the  First  and 
Second  Church  Sessions.  The  favor  which  met  these 
services  in  both  chapels  encouraged  the  committee  not  only 
to  continue  them  through  the  year,  but  to  hold  morning 
services  as  well,  the  meetings  alternating  between  the  two 
chapels,  and  Mr.  Hathaway  and  Mr.  Mackie  taking  their 
turns  preaching.  These  services  have  been  well  supported 
and  it  is  possible  that  out  of  them  will  develop,  ere  long,  a 
Union  Church  composed  of  the  members  of  the  two  chapels.

The  Fiftieth   Anniversary 

On  Tuesday,  December  31,  1907,  our  church  was  fifty 
years  old.  In  celebration  of  this  happy  event  a  program  of 
most  interesting  services  was  carried  out  extending  over  the 
week  of  December  29th.  On  that  morning  the  Pastor 
preached  a  Historical  Sermon,  which  will  be  found  in  full  on 
the  following  pages.  The  Rev.  Alexander  McCullagh, 
D.D.,  the  fifth  Pastor  of  the  church,  assisted  in  the  service. 
In  the  evening  the  Sabbath-school  and  Young  People's 
Celebration  was  held,  addresses  being  made  by  Mr.  Penrose 
R.  Perkins,  Superintendent  of  Summit  Sabbath-school; 
Mr.  Abbott  H.  Chase,  Superintendent  of  Eastminster 
Sabbath-school;  the  Rev.  Alexander  Henry,  D.D.,  Secretary 
of  the  Board  of  Publication  and  Sabbath-school  Work,  and 
the  Rev.  Willis  L.  Gelston,  Secretary  for  Young  People's 
Work. 

Tuesday  evening,  the  31st,  was  fittingly  observed  as 
Anniversary  Evening.  Greetings  were  brought  in  person 
by  the  Rev.  Horace  G.  Hinsdale,  D.D.,  the  first  Pastor  of 
the  church,  and  the  Rev.  Archibald  McCullagh,  D.D.,  the 
fifth  Pastor,  and  a  letter  specially  written  for  the  occasion 
by  the  Rev.  Charles  P.  H.  Nason,  D.D.,  the  seventh 
Pastor,  was  read.  Fraternal  greetings  were  also  spoken  by 
the  Rev.  W.  Beatty  Jennings,  D.D.,  of  the  First  Church; 
the  Rev.  R.  P.  D.  Bennett,  of  the  Summit  Church;  the 
Rev.  Boudinot  Seeley,  Jr.,  of  the  Wakefield  Church;  the 
Rev.  John  Calhoun,  of  the  Mount  Airy  Church;  the  Rev. 
William  Porter  Lee,  of  the  Westside  Church;  the  Rev. 
Harle  W.  Hathaway,  of  Eastminster  Chapel,  and  the  Rev. 
John  B.  Laird,  D.D.,  of  the  Frankford  Church.  After  an 
informal  reception  in  the  church  parlors,   a  very  impressive

THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

midnight  service  was  held,  Dudley  Buck's  *'Song  of  the 
Night"  being  rendered,  and  the  new  year  ushered  in  with 
prayer  and  praise. 

Friday  evening,  January  3d,  was  observed  as  Missionary 
Evening.  Greetings  were  read  from  our  Church  Mission- 
aries, Mr.  and  Mrs.  Marshall,  and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Brodhead, 
and  addresses  made  by  Mr.  Robert  E.  Speer,  Secretary  of 
the  Board  of  Foreign  Missions,  and  the  Rev.  Charles  L. 
Thompson,  D.D.,  Secretary  of  the  Board  of  Home  Mis- 
sions. 

The  Anniversary  Week  was  concluded  with  the  services 
on  Sabbath,  January  5th.  At  the  morning  service  the 
Rev.  Wilham  Henry  Roberts,  D.D.,  LL.D.,  Moderator  of 
the  General  Assembly,  gave  an  address  on  "The  Presbyter- 
ian Church  and  Our  Country,"  and  in  the  evening  the 
Rev.  Charles  R.  Erdman,  of  Princeton  Theological  Semi- 
nary, spoke  on  ''The  Church  and  EvangeHsm."  The 
Pastor  presided  at  all  the  services  of  the  week,  with  the 
exception  of  the  Sabbath-school  and  Young  People's  Serv- 
ice, when  Mr.  Abraham  R.  Perkins,  Superintendent  of  the 
Sabbath-school,  was  in  charge. 

The  celebration  will  long  remain  not  only  as  a  delight- 
ful memory,  but  as  an  inspiration  for  larger  and  better 
church  life. 

The  arrangements  for  the  celebration  of  the  Anniversary 
were  in  charge  of  the  Pastor  and  a  special  committee  con- 
sisting of:  Abraham  R.  Perkins,  chairman,  John  McArthur 
Harris,  John  W.  Moffly,  Walter  F.  Hagar,  Samuel  K. 
Marshall,  Joseph  B.  Mitchell,  William  H.  Bradbury,  John

Fifty   Fruitful  Years 

Historical  Sermon  preached  by  the  Pastor,  Rev.  John  Harvey  Lee, 
Sabbath  morning,  December  29,  1907,  in  celebration  of  the  Fiftieth 
Anniversary  of  the  Church. 

''^  One  generation  shall  praise  Thy  works  to  another  and 
shall  declare  Thy  mighty  acts.''—VSAhU  145:4. 

If  history  is  the  impress  of  God's  hand  on  the  life  of  the 
world,  then  the  recording  of  it  is  His  highest  praise.  Over 
every  story  of  human  achievement  might  be  written  the 
words:  ''What  hath  God  wrought!"  and  every  true  narra- 
tive might  be  the  score  of  a  majestic  song  in  praise  of  the 
excellency  of  His  power.  That  the  poets  and  prophets  of 
Israel  were  ever  telling  of  the  doings  of  God  in  the  develop- 
ment of  their  national  life  does  not  argue  for  greater  activity 
on  the  part  of  God  in  that  land,  but  only  that  they  were 
keener  students  and  more  thorough  philosophers  of  history 
than  their  neighbors.  God  is  at  work  everywhere.  His 
habitation  has  no  bounds  and  His  activity  is  not  circum- 
scribed. It  is  our  duty  to  study  His  works,  to  acquaint 
ourselves  with  His  mighty  acts  that  we  may  declare  them 
in  His  praise  to  our  fellows,  and  thus  enlarge  the  glory  of 
His  name  in  the  earth. 

As  it  is  vain  for  us  to  build  except  the  Lord  build  with 
us,  so  it  is  vain  for  us  to  celebrate  these  fifty  years  unless 
the  prayer  of  our  hearts  be:  "Not  unto  us,  not  unto  us, 
but  unto  Thy  name,  O  Lord,  be  the  glory!"  With  a  clear 
conviction  that  God  has  been  working  here  in  this  church, 
we  would  joyfully  make  record  of  this  and  eagerly  declare 
to  you  some  of  His  mighty  acts. 

The  birth-year  of  this  church,  1857,  was  a  memorable 
year  in  our  country's  annals.      The  social  and  political  con- 

35 


THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

ditions  were  far  from  ideal.  It  was  in  1857  that  the  Slave 
Power,  which  for  years  had  been  growing  in  tyrannic  inso- 
lence, won  its  greatest  victory  in  the  Dred  Scott  Decision 
of  the  Supreme  Court — a  victory  however  that  brought  the 
North  to  her  feet  and  hastened  the  final  undoing  of  the  whole 
iniquitous  system.  The  same  year  witnessed  the  desperate 
fight  for  the  establishment  of  slavery  in  the  new  State  of 
Kansas.  It  was  in  1857  that  the  open  defiance  of  our 
government  by  Brigham  Young,  in  Utah,  had  its  fruitage  in 
the  Mountain  Meadows  Massacre — the  foulest  stain  on  the 
pages  of  our  history.  And  it  was  the  year  of  the  great  panic. 
Those  who  recall  that  terrible  year  will  unite  in  declaring 
the  panics  of  1873  and  1893  and  the  present  year  only  insig- 
nificant disturbances  in  comparison  with  the  convulsions  of 
that  period. 

''There  was  no  money  and  there  was  no  credit.  The 
banking  institutions  of  this  country  numbered  less  than 
1,500,  and  1,440  of  them  put  up  their  shutters.  Fifty-one 
thousand  firms  and  corporations  went  into  bankruptcy. 
Ships  loaded  to  the  decks  turned  back  from  our  Atlantic 
harbors  without  having  opened  their  hatches.  There  was 
no  buyer;  there  was  no  market.  Half-completed  business 
blocks  and  elegant  unoccupied  houses  stood  staring  with 
dead  eyes  upon  deserted  streets  or  unfrequented  wastes;  and 
scores  of  railways,  arrested  in  mid-career,  remained  for 
years  after  'a  right  of  way  and  a  streak  of  rust.'  " 

But  all  was  not  dark  in  1857.  Religiously  and  spiritually 
it  was  a  year  of  years,  for  the  "Fulton  Street  Prayer  Meet- 
ing," of  New  York,  was  born  that  Fall.  Like  most  great 
movements  it  had  small  beginnings,  only  the  scriptural 
"two  or  three"  attending   the   first   meetings.     But  before 

36 


IN  GERMANTOWN 


one  could  realize  it  the  fire  began  to  spread  with  great 
rapidity.  The  church  in  Fulton  street  was  crowded  every 
day  at  the  noon  hour.  Soon  other  churches  were  opened 
for  the  noon-day  prayer  meetings,  until  there  were  twenty 
held  daily  throughout  the  city.  And  from  those  centers 
the  fire  of  revival  spread  throughout  the  State  and  nation. 
"There  was  little  or  no  preaching,  yet  there  was  scarcely  a 
town  of  five  hundred  population  in  which  daily  prayer  was 
not  publicly  held.  Every  available  room  was  pressed  into 
service.  Theatres,  academies,  district  schools — wherever 
people  could  meet  for  prayer,  prayer  was  offered.  And 
before  the  season  closed,  it  is  estimated  not  less  than 
1,000,000  souls  were  added  to  the  communicant  rolls  of  the 
evangelical  churches  of  our  land.  It  was  the  Lord's  doing, 
and  in  no  eyes  is  it  more  marvelous  now  than  it  was  in  the 
eyes  of  those  who  had  most  to  do  with  it." 

It  is  an  interesting  fact  that  just  when  the  revival  fires 
were  sweeping  most  fiercely  over  the  land  our  church  was 
born.  There  is  no  record,  however,  of  any  direct  connection 
between  the  two.  The  movement  for  the  organization  of 
this  church  seems  to  have  been  begun  simply  "in  conse- 
quence of  the  rapidly  increasing  population  of  German- 
town"  and  the  desire  on  the  part  of  certain  zealous  souls  to 
strengthen  the  cause  of  Presbyterianism  in  this  community. 

In  the  sermon  of  Dr.  Hinsdale  at  the  dedication  of  the 
chapel,  in  1858,  he  told  of  the  motive  in  these  words: 

It  became ....  the  imperative  conviction  of  a  certain 
number  of  Christian  men,  attached  to  the  doctrines  and 
order  of  our  church,  and  solicitous  for  the  spiritual  welfare 
of  their  families,  that  there  was  an  urgent  call  as  well  as 
ample  room  for  another  church  of  our  denomination." 

37 


THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN   CHURCH 

It  is  not  necessary  for  me  at  this  time  to  recount  the  suc- 
cessive steps  by  which  the  organization  was  effected  and  the 
church  estabhshed.  I  must  bear  record,  however,  to  the 
large  faith  and  unflagging  zeal  with  which  the  httle  band 
took  up  the  burden  of  the  new  work,  bore  patiently  the 
misinterpretation  of  their  motives  by  outsiders,  and  without 
outside  help  maintained  the  services  and  planned  for  the 
future.  Of  the  twelve  charter  members,  only  three  had 
been  connected  with  a  Germantown  church,  thus  showing 
that  the  work  did  not  draw  materially  upon  the  resources 
of  any  church  already  established.  In  fact  throughout  her 
history  our  church  has  enriched  the  other  churches  of  Ger- 
mantown far  more  than  it  has  been  enriched  by  them. 

Germantown  was  not  what  it  is  today.  There  was  no 
Pennsylvania  R.  R.,  no  trolley  to  the  city.  The  town  was 
still  an  independent  municipaHty.  Tulpohocken  Street  was 
on  the  very  edge  of  the  built-up  portion  and  the  whole 
community  sparsely  settled.  The  West  Side  yielded  to  the 
East  Side  the  palm  of  popularity  for  residence.  Even  as 
late  as  1870  the  pastor,  then  retiring,  spoke  of  the  field  as 
a  limited  one,  in  these  words: 

"I  called  this  a  pleasant  field  of  labor  and  such  it  is.  I 
do  not  say  that  it  is  a  large  field,  or  a  field  that  gives  range 
and  scope  for  vast  energies  or  vast  abilities.  I  do  not  say  it 
is  a  field  that  would  satisfy  a  high  ambition,  but  it  is  a  pleas- 
ant field  of  labor say,  rather  a  garden  than  a   field,  but 

a  garden  of  the  Lord,  in  which  one  may  stroll  among  the 
lilies  and  gather  myrrh  and  spice,  mindful  that  the  garden 
is  not  merely  to  be  enjoyed,  but,  like  Eden,  is  to  be  dressed 
and  kept."  (Farewell  discourse  of  Rev.  W.  E.  Ijams, 
preached  June  26,  1870.)

IN  GERMANTOWN 


It  was  not  an  easy  task  that  the  h'ttle  company  took  on 
themselves.  The  war  came  on  and  during  the  6o's  the 
little  church  had  a  severe  struggle.  The  erection  of  the 
main  church  building  two  years  after  the  chapel  was  built 
made  the  burden  almost  too  much  for  the  small  body. 
There  were  but  52  members  in  1862,  five  years  after  the 
organization. 

It  was  during  this  desperate  period  that  the  Session  for- 
bade for  a  short  time  the  taking  of  any  church  oflferings  for 
any  cause  outside  the  local  church !  But  though  they 
staggered  under  the  load,  they  persisted  with  brave  hearts 
and  steadfast  souls,  despising  not  the  day  of  small  numbers 
and  heavy  burdens,  confident  of  ultimate  success. 

The  church  has  been  blessed  from  the  first  by  a  noble 
succession  of  zealous,  broadminded,  capable  officers,  in- 
cluding pastors,  elders,  deacons  and  trustees.  The  rolls  of 
these  officials  may  well  be  pointed  to  with  pride  by  us  all. 

The  early  pastorates  were  short.  Dr.  Hinsdale,  who  laid 
the  substantial  foundations  of  the  structure,  was  here  four 
years.  His  successor,  Mr.  Taylor,  died  after  but  two  years 
of  service.  Mr.  DeVeuve  remained  only  two  years,  and 
Mr.  Ijams  followed  the  example  of  his  predecessors  and  cut 
short  his  ministry  after  two  years.  Under  Mr.  Ijams  the 
church  had  a  large  growth,  the  congregation  crowding 
the  building.  After  Mr.  Ijams,  came  Mr.  McCullagh, 
fresh  from  the  seminary,  the  only  pastor  to  receive 
ordination  in  this  church.  He  was  with  the  church  seven 
years,  and  seven  good  years  they  were,  of  steady  en- 
largement. 

Under  Dr.  Teal,  who  ministered  from  1878  to  1886,  the 
congregation    prospered   and   became  thoroughly  organized

THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

for  aggressive  work,  though  in  1882,  at  the  twenty-fifth 
anniversary  of  the  church's  founding,  the  fifth  year  of  Dr. 
Teal,  the  membership  was  but  184. 

Dr.  Nason,  the  church's  seventh  pastor,  served  in  the 
Gospel  for  fourteen  years,  exhibiting  rare  qualities  as  a 
Christian  minister  and  gentleman,  and  gave  over  to  his  suc- 
cessor a  strong  and  vigorous  body,  in  spite  of  the  fact  that 
in  the  middle  of  his  pastorate  the  church  gave  much  of  her 
best  strength  to  the  organization  of  Summit  Church. 

It  is  a  pleasure  this  morning  to  acknowledge  the  unspeak- 
able obligation  we  feel  ourselves  under  to  these  men,  into 
whose  faithful  labors  we  have  entered.  They  scattered  with 
fidelity  the  seed  of  the  Word,  which  yielded  large  fruitage, 
because  into  the  soil  they  cast  their  hearts  and  with  whole- 
hearted love  labored  for  Christ  and  His  church. 

But  the  harvest  song  of  the  fifty  years  would  be  incom- 
plete without  large  acknowledgment  to  the  men  who  have 
formed  the  body-guard  of  the  pastors — the  elders,  trustees 
and  deacons,  without  whose  wise,  courageous,  generous 
and  manly  support,  the  church  would  never  have  been 
lifted  into  its  present  place  of  power.  But  we  must  leave 
them  unnamed  here,  unworthy  though  this  tribute  be. 

The  church,  under  these  successive  leaders,  has  grown 
gradually  but  surely  in  strength  and  influence.  During 
the  fifty  years  1358  have  been  received  into  the  church, 
the  present  membership  being  584.  This  has  all  been 
accomplished  without  the  excitement  of  revivals  or  Pente- 
costal accessions.  Like  the  oak  of  the  forest  which  is  satis- 
fied with  slow  growth,  knowing  that  rapid  enlargement 
generally  means  a  feeble  plant,  so  our  church  has  been 
content  to  gather  to  herself  new  strength  with  the  enlarging 

40

community,  and  in  the  fulness  of  power  she  now  hfts  her 
head  with  grace  and  beauty,  to  give  life  to  all.  As  the 
little  chapel  was  expanded  into  the  larger  church  build- 
ing and  later  was  buttressed  by  the  main  Sabbath- 
school  room,  and  enlargement  followed  enlargement,  with 
little  appreciable  tearing  down  of  old  walls,  keeping  the  old 
in  the  getting  of  the  new,  so  the  congregation  has  gathered 
new  members  as  a  rule,  to  keep  them,  and  to  use  them  in 
ever-increasing  numbers  along  side  the  old  workers  in  the 
service  of  the  Master. 

And  now  I  must  pass  over  whole  chapters  in  our  history 
with  only  a  word,  chapters  full  of  interest  and  inspiration. 
There  is  first  of  all  the  Sabbath-school,  whose  Hfe  antedates 
the  church's  nearly  a  month,  the  nursing  mother  of  the 
church's  children,  which  has  had  two  less  superintendents 
than  the  church  has  had  pastors. 

Then  the  Work  of  the  Women,  who  have  labored  in  various 
organizations  so  earnestly,  lovingly  and  unostentatiously 
during  the  past  fifty  years. 

And  the  Young  People's  Organizations  which  have  given 
opportunity  to  hundreds  during  the  past  twenty-five  years 
for  training  and  service. 

And  there  are  our  Children.  Ah,  what's  a  home  without 
children?  And  what's  a  church  that  consumes  all  her 
energy  in  caring  for  herself?  We  rejoice  greatly  today  in 
the  children  of  our  church. 

There  is  our  daughter  on  the  hill — Summit  Church — 
which  had  its  beginning  in  the  prayer  meetings  and  Sabbath- 
school  maintained  by  our  members,  and  whose  present 
strength  is  a  tribute  to  this  church's  faithful  mothering. 
And  Eastminster!   Our  healthy  daughter,  scarce  two  years 

41 


THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

old;  you  all  know  of  her  and,  like  all  babies  of  two  years, 
you  find  her  exceedingly  interesting. 

But  perhaps  you  do  not  know  that  Somerville  Mission 
received  its  start  here  at  the  hand  of  one  of  our  revered 
elders,  Mr.  George  F.  Wiggan,  who  organized  the  mission 
and  superintended  the  Sabbath-school  until  his  death  in 
1 891;  and  that  we  gave  to  Wakefield  Church  one  of  her 
organizers,  who  is  to  this  day  a  tower  of  strength  in  her,  Mr. 
Francis  B.  Reeves.  Reference  must  also  be  made  to  the 
Wissahickon  Mission  and  Quarry  Mission,  the  former 
founded  and  conducted  for  years  by  Mr.  George  Heberton, 
both  being  furnished  with  workers  from  our  then  feeble 
forces,  neither  of  which,  however,  developed  into  a  perma- 
nent work. 

But  time  would  fail  us  to  tell  of  all  the  works  and 
labors  of  love  which  have  had  their  inspiration  under 
the  blessing  of  God  in  this  church,  of  the  innumerable 
institutions  which  have  been  aided  in  their  good  work  and 
of  the  many  missionary  enterprises  which  have  been  given 
new  impetus  at  the  hand  of  our  people. 

Let  me  conclude  with  a  brief  reference  to  what  I  esteem 
some  of  the  main  characteristics  of  the  fifty  years: 

I.  Unity  and  Harmony  of  Life.  As  Dr.  Nason  truly  said 
of  his  pastorate  in  his  fifth  anniversary  sermon,  so  might  it 
be  said  of  all  the  years : 

** Pre-eminently  I  may  speak  of  this  fact,  that  we  have 
been  a  united  and  harmonious  people.  The  years  have 
passed  without  the  shadow  of  dissension.  We  have  been 
more  like  a  family  than  a  large  organization.  Love  has 
been  without  dissimulation.  We  have  been  of  one  mind, 
and  the  God  of  Peace  has  been  with  us.      'Behold  how 


IN  GERMANTOWN 


good  and  how  pleasant  it  is  for  brethren    to  dwell  together 
in  unity.'  " 

2.  Liberality  in  Giving.  From  the  first  this  also  has 
been  a  marked  feature  of  our  church.  A  less  hberal  folk 
would  have  put  ofif  to  a  more  convenient  season,  than  the 
embarrassing  months  of  1857-58,  the  erection  of  a  house  of 
worship.  But  not  so  our  founders.  With  rare  energy  and 
zeal  they  set  to  work  and  out  of  their  limited  resources, 
raised  sufficient  within  nine  months  to  purchase  a  church 
lot,  erect  the  chapel  and  furnish  it,  at  a  total  cost  of 
$6,500,  and  dedicate  it  free  of  debt. 

And  this  spirit  of  liberality  has  never  since  been  absent. 
To  illustrate  how  consistently  this  has  been  maintained 
along  with  the  enlarging  membership,  let  me  give  you  the 
records  for  the  first  five  years  of  each  of  the  last  three 
pastorates. 

Dr.  Teal,  at  his  fifth  anniversary  in  1882,  noted  the  fact 
that  the  total  contributions  for  the  five  years  had  been 
$45,230,  a  yearly  average  of  $9,046,  the  church  membership 
being  less  than  200- 

Dr.  Nason  at  his  fifth  anniversary  gave  the  total  contri- 
butions for  the  five  years,  $89,019,  a  yearly  average  of 
$17,804,  with  the  membership  less  than  400. 

During  the  five  years  of  the  present  pastorate  the  total 
contributions  have  been  $123,490,  a  yearly  average  of 
$24,698,  with  the  membership  less  than  600. 

What  church  can  show  a  more  consistent  record  for 
liberality  in  giving? 

3.  The  Missionary  Spirit.  This  has  already  been  shown 
in  the  work  done  in  Germantown  for  the  enlargement  of 
the  kingdom.     But  this  does   not   begin  to  tell  the  story. 

43 


THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

Our  field  is  the  world,  and  the  world  field  has  been  gripping 
the  hearts  of  this  people  more  and  more,  until  we  are  now 
giving  more  for  work  outside  our  parish  than  for  the  work 
within,  maintaining  our  special  representatives  on  the  home 
and  foreign  fields  and  generously  supporting  them  in  their 
work,  besides  helping  scores  of  other  servants  of  the  Lord  in 
the  Master's  service.  The  giving  of  a  whole  evening  of  our 
anniversary  week  to  Missions  is  not  too  strong  a  represen- 
tation of  the  place  of  Missions  in  our  hearts  and  service. 

Is  it  any  wonder  we  love  the  old  church  about  which 
cluster  so  many  glorious  traditions,  home  of  so  many  noble 
souls  and  center  of  such  consecrated  activity  in  the  enlarge- 
ment of  the  Kingdom?  The  joy  in  our  hearts  is  echoed 
in  heaven  today.  The  Master  rejoices,  the  angels  rejoice, 
the  elders  and  saints  around  the  throne  rejoice;  all  are  glad 
with  us  for  these  fifty  fruitful  years,  and  their  joy,  as  ours, 
is  enlarged  because  this  day  finds  us,  as  a  church,  with 
undimmed  vision  and  unabated  force,  full  of  vigor  and 
promise  for  the  future,  ready  to  go  forward  in  response  to 
the  new  orders  of  our  Commander  and  take  as  our  motto 
the  watchword  of  Xavier, 

"  For  the  greater  glory  of  God  !"

Historical  Sketch 

On  November  21,  1857,  a  company  of  fifteen  assembled 
at  the  house  of  Mr.  Joseph  G.  Mitchell,  corner  of  Walnut 
Lane  and  Greene  Streets,  to  consider  the  formation  of  a 
new  Presbyterian  church  in  Germantown.  The  meeting 
resolved  "That  on  the  first  Sabbath  in  December  v^e  pro- 
ceed to  hold  religious  services,  to  be  conducted  by  such 
ministers  from  the  city  and  elsew^here  as  can  be  obtained, 
provided  suitable  arrangements  can  be  made;  and  to  organ- 
ize a  Sunday-school."  Agreeable  to  this  action  the  first 
preaching  service  was  held  in  the  Mennonite  Church,  on 
Germantown  Avenue,  December  5,  1857,  ^^  which  day 
also  the  Sabbath-school  was  organized. 

The  Second  Presbytery  of  Philadelphia,  on  December 
I7»  1857,  appointed  a  committee  to  meet  on  December 
31st,  and  organize  the  Second  Presbyterian  Church  in 
Germantown,  at  the  request  of  thirty  persons,  residents  of 
Germantown,  and  "either  members  of  the  Presbyterian 
Church  or  attached  to  its  doctrines  and  order." 

On  December  23,  1857,  the  first  congregational  meeting 
was  held,  when  the  charter  was  adopted,  trustees,  elder 
and  deacons  elected  and  the  purchase  of  the  present  site  of 
the  church  authorized. 

The  church  was  organized  by  a  Committee  of  Presbytery 
on  Thursday  evening,  December  13,  1857,  with  twelve 
charter  members,  as  follows:  Frederick  A.  van  Dyke,  Jr., 
Mrs.  Anna  M.  van  Dyke,  George  Heberton,  Mrs.  Anna 
S.  Heberton,  Joseph  G.  Mitchell,  Mrs.  Frances  A.  Collins 
Mitchell,  Mrs.  Mary  Burkhart  Hagar,  Joseph  B.  Barry, 
Mrs.  Elizabeth  R.  Barry,  Thomas  Broom  Smith,  Mrs. 
Endora    H.    Smith,    Mrs.    Elizabeth    S.    Sniith.      At  this 

45 


THE  SECOND  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

meeting  Mr.  Thomas  Broom  Smith  was  installed  Ruhng 
Elder,  and  Mr.  Joseph  B.  Barry  and  Mr.  George  Heberton 
ordained  and  installed  Deacons. 

On  March  8,  1858,  a  congregational  meeting  was  held, 
and  Rev.  Horace  G.  Hinsdale  elected  Pastor.  The  call  was 
accepted  by  Mr.  Hinsdale  in  a  letter  dated  March  27, 
1858.  Early  in  April  of  the  same  year  the  lot  at  the  corner 
of  Tulpohocken  and  Greene  was  secured  and  steps  taken 
towards  erecting  a  chapel.  This  chapel  was  opened  for 
service  and  dedicated  September  12,  1858.  Up  to  this 
time  all  the  services  and  congregational  meetings  had  been 
held  in  the  Mennonite  Church.  In  the  Spring  of  i860 
work  was  commenced  on  the  church  building,  and  on  Sab- 
bath, June  30,  1 86 1,  it  was  dedicated  to  God's  worship 
with  appropriate  services,  the  corner  stone  having  been 
laid  May  7,  i860.  This  building  has  since  been  enlarged 
and  improved,  but  the  little  chapel,  now  occupied  by  the 
Primary  Department  of  the  Sabbath-school,  has  been  kept 
in  its  original  form. 

In  1882  the  large  chapel,  or  main  Sabbath-school  build- 
ing, was  built  at  a  cost  of  $10,000.  In  1887  the  manse 
was  erected- on  the  church  lot  on  Greene  Street,  at  a  cost 
of  $10,000.  In  1890-91  the  main  church  edifice  was  ex- 
tended, and  in  1894  the  organ  was  enlarged  and  placed 
back  of  the  new  pulpit  platform  and  screen,  at  a  cost  of 
$15,000.  During  the  Summer  and  Fall  of  1902,  $17,000 
was  expended  in  church  improvements,  the  main  features  of 
which  were  the  building  of  the  Morgan  Memorial  Tower 
and  putting  in  new  windows,  including  the  EUiot  and 
Kimball  Memorial  Windows. 

In  the  early  '8o's  a  Mission  was  started   by  the  church 

46 


IN  GERMANTOWN 


called  the  Carpenter  Street  Mission,  out  of  which  has 
grown  the  Summit  Presbyterian  Church,  organized  into  a 
separate  church  in  1894.  The  Second  Church  has  con- 
tributed liberally  to  this  work  in  money,  workers,  and 
members,  and  rejoices  greatly  in  its  present  prosperity. 

In  October,  1905,  another  mission,  called  Eastminster 
Chapel,  was  organized  by  the  Session  on  the  east  side  of 
Germantown.  The  rapid  and  substantial  growth  of  this 
work  has  been  most  gratifying. 

The  history  of  the  congregation  has  been  marked  for  the 
harmony  which  has  always  pervaded  its  activities  and  for 
the  growing  liberality  of  its  members  toward  all  worthy 
causes.  The  missionary  spirit  has  grown  stronger  and 
stronger,  until  now  the  church  supports  a  missionary  and 
his  wife  in  China,  and  a  missionary  and  his  wife  on  the 
home  field,  in  addition  to  all  its  other  benevolent  work. 
The  total  benevolences  for  the  past  year  were  $13,433.85, 
the  largest  in  the  history  of  the  congregation. 

From  the  beginning  the  church  has  had  a  steady  growth 
in  membership  and  influence,  under  the  faithful  leadership 
of  its  successive  Pastors,  of  whom  there  have  been  eight.  A 
roll  of  these,  together  with  rolls  of  the  Ruling  Elders, 
Deacons  and  Trustees  of  the  Church  from  its  organization 
to  the  present  time,  will  be  found  on  the  following  pages. 
A  table  is  also  given  showing  the  growth  in  membership 
and  contributions  through  the  fifty  years  of  the  church's 
life.
